These little IR Blasters are incredibly simple to use with Zigbee2MQTT - once paired, you just need to set learn_ir_code to ON, press the remote button you want to copy, then the code for that button press is published as learned_ir_code (and learn_ir_code sets itself to OFF automatically). Once you have that code saved somewhere, all you need to do is set ir_code_to_send to that value and the button of choice is emulated by the blaster.Add in your automation software of choice (I use it in conjunction with a simple Node-Red dashboard), and you can control basically anything that uses an IR remote automatically/over the network, all without even downloading the suggested app.

I was able to pair the device in home assistant however on other to learn codes from your remote you need to pair it with tuya or smartlife app and the instruction did not follow the app way to add devices

Won’t connect to Wi-Fi (2.4). Missed the return window so I am stuck with it. No support and a terrible decision to try this.

El dispositivo lo enlace a mi gateway que esta conectado por cable, y lo detecto sin problemas. Cumple su función y permite añadir controles custom. Tenia otro dispositivo que cumplia la misma funcion pero funcionaba con WiFi. Ahora tengo un dispositivo menos que ocupe Internet.

I didn't really get a chance to try the product as the battery cover can't be opened, so it's never powered up. I don't want to force it open since I still want to be able to return it. I got the usb+wifi based UFO-R6 instead.

Note: I am using this with Home Assistant.Up side: It does pop up in Home Assistant Zigbee devices when you pop in some batteries and pair it. Fast and simple. like most Zigbee devices. It also can display the output IR codes your remote is transmitting when you are in 'learning' mode.The heads up: If you are buying this for Home Assistant and have never dealt with scripts or send commands, you will learn a bit here as you get it to read in a code (easy), play back a code (works after you figure it out), and then set up an automation or button to play back recorded code.The downside: I think I can only come up with one pain point so far. We had a nine hour power outage the other day. Power came backup, the Zigbee network came up. But this device (I have two , neither of them did) did not come up. Pull the batteries and reinstall.. nothing.I ended up removing the device from Home Assistant (deleting from the Zigbee configuration) and then had to reregister it as a new device. Then I could repoint my scripts back at it.So.. Does it do what it says? Yes. Does it work flawlessly? Mostly. (Sometimes devices don't 'hear' it and you have to send the code a second time). Are they possible issues? Yes. You just have to know about that.I can't say other devices won't have similar problems. 8 other devices in my Zigbee network had no problems coming back online. 5 are battery powered (no counting the two devices in those numbers). Having to pull these off the wall or ceiling (where mine are parked) is a pain in the butt. Not something I want to do on even a semi-regular basis. Only needs to come down when the batteries need changing.Positive thing: These do NOT require any special specific brand's Zigbee hub. I am using an SMLIGHT power over ethernet 'stick like' Zigbee hub. Not Tuya, not Apple, etc..

no issues like other zigbee battery devices, able to learn IR codes which resemble base64 strings. Nothing else to report since it is a fairly simple device

The wrong instructions came in the box. I bought the zigbee, but got the wifi instructions. Furthermore, the device self registers as a switchon my network. It might work after diving into MQTT stuff, but it will take a lot to understand. This device will not work directly out of the box; It will require lots of extra work to get started.
